Accessing Advanced Software Settings

Text Mode:

The Printers (PJ-522/PJ-523) can print either Raster Graphics or Text Mode. The choice is determined automatically by the data stream sent from the host device to the printer.

Raster Graphics is the most common form of usage for the PocketJet. The printer uses bit-mapped graphics as opposed to text. What you will see is WYSIWYG

what you see is what you get – meaning that what is on your computer screen is what is printed.

In Text Mode, the Printers will print only the characters contained in the resident character set. For the Printers this character set is the Epson® ESC/P emulation in native serif and sans serif fonts in 10, 12, 15 cpi and proportional sizes.
